does polished nickel tarnish ?

Not that we have experienced. We have had polished nickel chandeliers and door hardware in two home and have never seen signs of tarnishing.

The surface is mirrored . i clean it with glass cleaner and it hasn't tarnished. It's not silver so i can't imagine that it would.

I've had the set for a couple of months. You definitely will have to polish then regularly if you want them to stay shiny.

The finish on the set I got is polished. Look very nice and we are very happy with them.

Sorry. I had it sent directly to a friend as a gift, so I had to email her and ask. She says it still looks brand new and shiny, so I'd say it's 99% certain that it's plated with something that does not tarnish. Good luck!

Hi - no polished chrome is not the same as brushed nickel. Polished chrome has a very shiny finish while brushed nickel has a duller more matte silver finish. Hope that helps.

I have no way to compare, but I can tell you that our Danze polished nickel product is holding up quite well. It continues to look like new after months in service.

I've had it three years and no sign of tarnish. I've never polished it. It's a beautiful light.

This one is Satin Nickel. There is a two letter color code after the model number. SN for Satin Nickel, PB for polished brass, RB for oil rubbed bronze. The one you are looking to avoid is called polished chrome or polished nickel.

i have polished nickel. it looks great, but never again i will have it in my house. i have to wipe my faucets after every use in order to keep them nice and sparking clean. if the water drop dries on it, it creates a stain. my other bathroom has polished chrome. - i can leave it for a week, and after wiping with a wet sponge and buffing with a terry towel it looks as good as new. i used to be paranoid about my polished nickel, but now i clean with flitz once a year and it looks not bad at all. (but i wipe it dry with the terry towels after almost every use). hope this helps

I am happy with these lobster clasp, I never wear them to water, so I do not know that they tarnish .

It will work well on all soft metals including nickel, using normal polishing media. Steel will require a more aggressive media ie: walnut shell with emery or some like compound. Silver, white bronze, and pewter should use white jeweler's rouge.

Pretty sure it is polished stainless, though I couldn't say for sure. I have had no flaking with 2+ months of heavy use (3-4 uses per day)

Nothing is stated in description about the lining being anti-tarnish but after using a polishing cloth to remove tarnish on my sterling silver jewelry, I add a few silica gel packs in my Stackers jewelry box and they stay tarnish free!

It looks like nickel to me. Not shiny. It's quite attractive and I'm glad I bought it

The satin nickel finish (surface roughness) is smooth but not shiny and doesn't exhibit a polishing "pattern" like stainless steel. However, this hardware looks terrific along side our stainless steel appliances. The satin nickel doesn't show fingerprints, which is important on drawer handles. One of stainless steel's largest metallurgical components is nickel, so the color is nearly identical. You will be happy with the results, as long as you're not putting stainless hardware next to satin nickel hardware because the polish finish is different. Good luck with your project.

Well you don't have to polish them at all...but......they are showing signs of rust or something on them that can't come off...I am very disappointed with them I thought they would last forever...it is little marks on them that are very small but are permanent..I plan to get ceramic next time..I love the copper look but it doesn't work ..my last copper pans rusted on the bottom and that was worse...big rings every week on the counter...
